• Kanye West’s Louis Vuitton Sneaker

A much clearer photograph of the Kanye West x Louis Vuitton collaboration sneaker has finally surfaced, but in a completely different color than what was expected.

PARIS — Marc Jacobs and the Louis Vuitton men’s studio director Paul Helbers have some design competition this season. Kanye West, who was sitting front row at the Vuitton show, has designed a line of five LV sneakers. Only one design, above, was featured in the show — a monochromatic midtop with no frills, save for a quilted flap in the back, all the easier to tuck pants into. “The inspiration came from a jacket with a huge collar in the movie ‘Dune,’ ” West says. “Most sneakers focus on the tongue, so I wanted to do something different.” West knows whereof he speaks: he says he has no idea how many shoes he owns, but he does know that he routinely needs to send shipments off to storage. The LV-meets-Kanye kicks will be available at Louis Vuitton stores in June.

• Louis Vuitton Don Sneakers

While in a studio session with the likes of Consequence, Kid Cudi, and the rest of the G.O.O.D. Music family, Kanye West reveals more information about his collaboration sneaker with Louis Vuitton. Kanye sarcastically asks the cameraman, Consequence, “What could KW stand for on a Louis shoe?”

Kanye also explains that the reason for the high-arch back of the sneaker is to help prevent jeans from dragging on the floor.
